The Closer I Get To You lyrics

The closer I get to you

The more you'll make me see

By giving me all you've got

Your love has captured me

Over and over again

I try to tell myself that we

Could never be more than friends

And all the while inside

I knew it was real

The way you make me feel

Lying here next to you

Time just seems to fly

Needing you more and more

Let's give love a try

Sweeter than sweeter love grows

And heaven's there for those

Who fool the tricks of time

With the hearts in love they find

True love

In a special way

The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving me all you've got

Your love has captured me

Over and over again

I try to tell myself that we

Could never be more than friends

And all the while inside

I knew it was real

The way you make me feel

The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving you all I've got

Your love has captured me

The closer I get to you

A feeling comes over me

[Me too]

Falling closer

Sweet as the gravity
